HABITS THAT IMPROVE DIGESTION

Understanding some basic things about the way we leave and what we do can improve the standard of our health in many ways even without visiting any healthcare provider.

MUCH DRINKING.
The liquid we take dilutes our body’s natural digestive enzymes which are needed in full force to cope with all the food we eat every single moment. The body is better able to digest the food when all the enzymes are fully active.


TAKE TIME TO CHEW.
Chewing of foods help to increase the surface area of the food and enhance proper and speedy digestion. Chew your food well and savour the taste by slowing down. Aside from increasing the surface area, chewing mixes food with digestive enzymes that get started immediately to improve digestion.

EATING EARLIER IN THE DAY.
Food is not digested immediatelly it arives in the stomach. The body needs adequate time for digestion. Lying down too soon after eating can result in heartburn and indigestion.

SALADE WITH APPLE CIDER VINEGER BEFORE MEAL.

The enzymes in the greens help with digestion, while the apple cider vinegar stimulates the body’s natural production of hydrochloric acid to aid protein digestion.

PEPPERMINT OR GINGER HERBAL TEA.
Both have been shown in studies to improve digestion. They are best drunk between meals rather than with meals.
